I'm worried because my bilirubin level just came back as 7.5. I'm not sure if this means I should be getting admitted for treatment. Could you please advise me on what steps I should take or if I need to be concerned? Thanks for your help!

I've been told to take Vsl 3 and Econorm once daily for a month. Is it okay if I take them in the afternoon with a 10-minute gap between them? I'm just trying to make sure I'm doing it right!
